I should be completely overwhelmed (and there are momentary fizzles), but for the most part I just face what ever is in front of me and just deal with it.
I have seen many women faced with a diagnosis find this inner calm. I do not know if it is resolve, acceptance, resignation, determination or what?
I have just learned another friend has just had a biopsy. She is already a survivor. We were hoping to celebrate a major milestone of being in the 'clear'.
I talked to her yesterday. There was that inner calm again, or at least her outer self was putting on a very good facade. The inside might have been screaming, stamping feet, tearing hair and spewing tears and snot. If it was - that is ok too.
She will learn the results next week. I really hope they are negative and we can celebrate that milestone with added enthusiasm.
